One three-pointer 9 in 0, one in 2 games to grab 3 boards, send these two away, otherwise the Lakers will not go far
Although many fans very much approve of the Lakers' operation in the past summer, I still have to pour cold water on it, sign Hayes, sign Christian Wood is no problem, and even say that it doesn't matter if Russell renews his contract with 2 years and $37 million, but these 2 people, the Lakers really misunderstood.

One of them is Hachimura.
Although Hachimura has had some outstanding performances in the playoffs, throughout the season, including previous seasons, one conclusion can be drawn that Hachimura is not a qualified championship puzzle, his advantages are not obvious enough, and his shortcomings are extremely prominent.
The only advantage is shooting, Hachimura has a certain mid-range shooting ability, and in some games, he can use his height and arm span to punish the opponent, but because he is not stable enough, most of the time, Hachimura is playing iron, and after a few misses, his self-confidence will drop sharply, trying to burst to the basket and attack closer to the basket, but due to his weak confrontation ability and lack of strength, he either misses the layup or is capped by the opponent.
As for the shortcomings, it is a basket, as a 2.03-meter-tall wing, Hachimura can neither defend the outside line, nor the inside line, and the quality of blocking and dismantling is not high, the ability to protect rebounds is extremely poor, the first 2 games of the game, Hachimura's performance is also very average, a total of 13 shots 5 hits, and the three-point line is only 20%, rebounds, he only grabbed 3 in total, it's not that the coach doesn't give him a chance, it's that he really doesn't know what role to arrange for Hachimura, so, I really don't understand, why did the Lakers renew his contract?
The second is Gabe Vincent
It is true that in this year's playoffs, Vincent is one of the absolute heroes who helped the Heat break into the Finals, but it should be noted that in the Heat's system, Vincent can shine, and once he is separated, his shortcomings will be infinitely magnified.
Let's talk about Vincent's advantages and disadvantages first, his advantage is that he has a big heart, a lot of desire to win, and the ability to grasp the vacant shot, but the disadvantage is that the ability to hold the ball is weak, the dynamic and static talent is insufficient, and the offensive and defensive efficiency is relatively average.
In the Heat, especially in this year's playoffs, Butler's personal threat has reached a historic level, as soon as he gets the ball, the opponent's entire defense line moves, coupled with Adebayo's ability to respond, so the Heat's shooters can easily get open opportunities, and on the defensive end, the Heat have enough resources to make up for Vincent's shortcomings to the greatest extent.
But when it comes to the Lakers, as he gets older, James can no longer attract defense as he did at his peak, and as for the thick eyebrows, he doesn't have the big picture like Adebayo, in such a completely unfamiliar team, will Vincent still be so magical? Looking at the first two games of the season, Vincent made 6 of 18 shots and missed 9 shots from beyond the three-point line.
Some people may say that the season has just begun, and the sample size of 2 games is too small, but I want to say that mistakes do not disappear little by little over time, and that what is not suitable is not appropriate, let alone Hamm, even Popovich is difficult to put such a group of people together.
